Unblock, scrape, and search tools for MCP clients
Unblock, scrape, and search tools for MCP clients. The pure.md mcp server wraps that behind the Model Context Protocol, so an assistant can use it through 4 defined tools rather than through you.
Welcome to the Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for pure.md.
Everything the assistant can do here goes through one of these:
unblock-url — Extract markdown from web pages without getting blockedsearch-web — Search the web for a query and concatenate results into markdownCursor — The Cursor tool exposed by this serverWindsurf — Add the following to your ./codeium/windsurf/model_config.json file:You will need one environment variable: PUREMD_API_KEY. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.
Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at @smithery/cli on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
Plenty of search and retrieval servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Pure.Md's toolset — unblock-url, search-web, Cursor and 1 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by puremd; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.

The simplest web tool that matters — fetch any URL and get model-ready markdown back.
Industrial-strength web extraction — render, scrape, crawl and search entire sites into clean markdown.
Puppeteer-powered browser control that drives pages from the accessibility tree instead of pixels.
Search built for AI, not humans — semantic web search that returns model-ready content, plus code context.
Answers, not links — delegate questions to Perplexity's search-grounded models and get cited responses back.
Put 6,000+ pre-built scrapers at your assistant's fingertips through one MCP endpoint.
